The Crirrorwion of ' I.oitili'ne to atr only seei!•nrl to the highest a•senrhly in the kingdom ; ster+-,,anymao;\elityliad pAssed through the different offices of that cm-r -pm:llion, Was folly quallfit'd to nlFii I.lmself as its tepteserittiti%r itr Pat liament. He was sorry _ _ _ to I►e obli4ed to •ta'e, that ;1 tr;MendOllS influence had ever liven, sod ►c;ts still likely to be exercised over the Livers; of London. 'Wilt regard to his Own pretensions, he would leave that'iluestion entirely wi , h the Livery.; he could 'exercise no Monier over citei►,; lie had not influence enough to n►o've it feather ; all he to ►est on was public opinion, and on that, and upon the good wishes at the Livery, Ict luliv !died. lie trnste•d, there fore, that all who possessed the true spirit of in dependence would crowd to tie pull trod give hint their support. AIr.NVIL.soN then came forward.

As to principle., he Sliould always Soppeirt the Con stitution of King-, Lords, and Commons, such as it had been established at the glOrious Itevolu viOn. He had appeared before them to solicit the remki,d vacant by the resignation of their late esteemed aqd respected Representative, Sir J.--Shaw. It the Livery of London should send him into Parliament, he should make it his stiudy to give his vote in a manner as to promote their commercial interests, on the-due support of so much (Arpended the power and faospe r;ty of Hick . city. Thotif,li he was not of their CorporAt ion, yet he did not appear before thew as a svaneer : his father had been a Freeman Of thvir City, and be Iva- - ; therefore entitled to it by birth.---ihough be did not possess a gown, he had no objectiof► to add the arduous duties it int posel to the.high honour to which he now aspir ed, if tbtir favour should render his suit for the latter successful, and it in their opinion he could undertake the (Alice consistently with his situa, tion in life, what he owed to his family, and his Ow n plivcicat s.rengdt. Ile put himself into their bands, and thanked diem most cordially .for the persevering support he had received. A Air. DowNING, in the centre of the Hall, . - was then raised upon the shouldets of a few of Ills friends, and addressed the Livery. Ile &scored in rather an incoherent manner upon the neces sity of independence on the part of tie Electors, Rod regretted that there was not a greater num ber of Candidates. Not being much attended to by the Meeting, he . dropped to hiS former station among the crowd. Mr. RowcitorT then came forward and said, that when the resignation of Sir J. Shaw was an nounced, much to the surprise and regret of his feilow•-citizens, he had not thought of coming for ward, but finding that no other petson was dis posed to offer himself, he had, at the request of a outuber of friends, been indured to come toreeard. 6iuce then, however, a number of respectable in dividuals had preferred their claims, and finding that there was a sufficient number of Candidates, be should for the present decline the honour he intended to have done himself-by pressing his his claims further.—(Applause.) After the nominations had concluded, the show of hands took place tor the reseective Candidates, a-nd the Sheriffs declared the majority. to be in fa your of ,Messrs. NVuod, Thorp, 'Wait(mutt), and r‘ Ir. Birch having' declined the contest, Sir William Curtis and Alderman Atkins demanded a Poll, which commenced at half-past three, and closed at hall -pas► (our. At 5 o'clock the num bers were thus posted :--- ‘Von(I I'4; t Wil:on Waithinan - 159 Curtis 91 Thorp lSt; Atkins Alderman Wool) then came forward and merely thanked the Liverymen for the honour they had done him, assuring them that if he should be so buccessful as to be returned, he would always en dVavour to merit their approbation. Mr. WAITHMAN expressed the great gratifica tion he felt at this testimony of public feeling. Alderman TtiOlt? and Mr. WusoN briefly 're tt:rned thanks Ihr the hohohr conferred upon th em; and Sir Wm. CURTIS and alderman ATKINS ei deavoured to ito the same, but in vain. So great was the clamour thot not a word they said could be,heard; they therefore bowed and retired. DUEL.---A meeting took place yesterday morn ing at seven o'clock at Chalk FatlO, between Lieutenant WILLIAMS, of the Royal Navy, and WALco - r. The parties exchanged shuts twice, and on the last fire Mr. WALcoT received a wound i his left arm. The seconds then interfeted, and the parties left the ground on friendly terms. — The meeting originated in a dispute at Vau-xhall Gardens on Wednesday night. Yesterday ! Another Twenty Thousand Pound Prize was sold by CARROLL, in One Half, Two Eighths, and -Four Sixteenths. The number of the Ticket is 9,481, and the fortunate Holders. may receive their Money on demand.—This is the •Third Prize of 20,0001. sold by CAuttou. in the Last live months.

The following arc extracts : ` i PARIS, JUNG 1-1 —Friday, on the opeliing of the Sitting of the Correctional Tribunal, a case was called on of a seditious engraving.--- , -An en graver, named Pawrour, designed a plate, repre-. tenting a c!sild, dressed en militaire, seated on the (,nee of - an-old grenadier, and surrounded by old soldiers. The engraver, and - several dealers who had sold the print, having beets summoned to an swer for it, they replied that they hod discovered nothing: its the plate but the representation of . a scene in l'Enfunt du Regiment, a piece played for some time at the Theatre de la Gaiet6.—An Or donnance of the Chamber of Council.of the Tri bunal .dc Premiere Instance declared on this ground that these was no cause for prosecution. On the opposition, however, of the public Mi nistry, the Cour Royale set aside this decision, and directed PawrouT and the dealers to be tried before the Tribunal of Correctional Police. The arrett containing this determination import chat the engraving, in its different parts, and in its ensemble, is intended to represent the son of By ONAFARTE; " The CAW.

" Al,nato, JUNE 2.—An expedition sailed from Cadiz the 21st tilt. consisting of thirteen vessels, convoyed by a frigate, and having on board 2,000 troops. It is said to be going to Limit, ,and ttai' a second is preparing. " Ontissa, MAY 19.—The Emperor of Russia arrived here the 13th instant, and set out the 16th for the Crimea. His imperial Majesty reviewed a very considerable Corps intim:6in the environs of Bender. The Emperor was so much satisfied with this town, that. he sent off a chasseur with a letter in his own hand-►criting to the Duke e lticbrlieu, at Paris, to testify his satisfac tion to the founder of Odessa, of a_ town which 16 years ago contained only a few cabins inhabit ed by shepherds. Stone is to be brought hither front the Crimea to pave the streets, in which work a battalion of pioneers is to be employed. " The Count Benigsen has obtained leave to resign on acco►Nt of his age ; he retires to his native country, Hanover, to pass the remainder of his life. " VIENNA, JUNE 3.—The Emperor and Em press of Austria, at the date of thelast accounts, were about to proceed to Cattaro. Their Im perial Majes,tes are expected to return here early in July.

We lament the necessity of staining oJr l'apc.r with the account of the rabbis: progress of HUNT yesterday, which was so disgraceful to the city of Westminster, and of the h4ckneyed ribaldry which he uttered. But public curiosity gill have it and we must submit. The supporters of Captain Sir MUICZAY KAXWELL, who arc in ti tali the sup portets of all that is honourable to themselves and the country, take a vet) , different, but a 'chore respectable, and, we trust, a more certain course. : Nl* our okcil part, we should warmly • support interesisi i hirssentinunetitl it t he were Kn obscure individn;i, as he conies forward in opposition to the r . uinOris Reformers, who %rant to overthrow all Government. But as Captain Sir NlyanAv MaxwEm. has rendered himself con spienoits by his rnei itorions actions, as lie possesses sound mbilities, and tire pul'est political we' feel pride as well as pleasure, and, indeed:, deem it our bounden duty to give all the aid in our honer to promote the success of sc . > gallant a character, a chat acter that, on; the oceau or in the Serrate, have no motives of action but patriotism, loyalty, and the true interest and honotir of the Empire. 'Pie nomination of Candidates in the City of London is by no weans a cruel ion by whichlt is at all probable to estinwe 'he success of the en suing Election. The POLL is the true standard, and, therc!'ore, not regarding the show of hands which' appeared yesterday in Guildhall, in which hundreds might have juined without any right, or the earlier appearances of die I'oLL itself, the public must attend to its progress, and then, we doubt not, that they will see the true friends of the country raised to the honour of representing !he greatest Cify on Earth. Let the Livery consider the im portant consequences that Miy-tesult fro,n their votes, and not by electing reforming Demagogues endanger the exi,tence of that glolions Consti tution to which we owe all our happiness and security, The HIGH BAILIFF of Westminster, we under stand, has signified to the joint Committee it: favour of Sir FRANCIS BURDETT, and Mr. DOUGLAS KINNAIIiI), as well as to thurfor Major CART WRIGLIT, 0131 though he Must, of course, ac cept them as Candidates, if they arc offertd, yet, that if 'they tAill not contribute their share towards indemnifying burn for the expence of erecting the Hustings, he shall not permit them to make their appearancethere• What, indeed, must be thought of men who is ill not subscribe to relieve a Public Oflicer for an unavoidable ex pence, notwithstanding the trouble and Anxiety to which their vexations, and ; we trust, hopeless attempts; will necessarily expose him ? SIR 111tIIIIIAY ill,►x►vtct.t. —1 he benefit of a good moral character has never been more strongly exemplified than in the instance of this o:Ecer.---- The circumstance of his having propagated the Bible in regions where it never'befotc existed, of his banishing swearing and profaneness from his ship, merely by the force of his personal ex ample, (for severity and punishment he never re sorted to), has obtained for him, as it might, the wAriii support of every man of sound religious feeling, many of whom are at this moment power fully exerting themselves in his favour. At a highly respectable Meeting yesterday .(not con-. vetted for the purpose of any political discuison) these facts, on !icing - alluded tc"),•Pfoduced the sensations which they naturally and deservedly might be supposed to excite. • • - SUN-OFFICE, Two o'CLocii.
